When coding the pNFS server, I added several vn_start_write() calls done while the vnode was locked, not realizing I had introduced LORs and possible deadlock when an exported file system on the MDS is suspended. This patch fixes this by removing the added vn_start_write() calls and modifying the code so that the extant vn_start_write() call before the NFS RPC/operation is done when needed by the pNFS server. Flags are changed so that LayoutCommit and LayoutReturn now get a vn_start_write() done for them. When the pNFS server is enabled, the code now also changes the flags for Getattr, so that the vn_start_write() is done for Getattr, since it may need to do a vn_set_extattr(). The nfs_writerpc flag array was made global to the NFS server and renamed nfsrv_writerpc, which is consistent naming for globals in the NFS server. Thanks go to kib@ for reporting that doing vn_start_write() while the vnode is locked results in a LOR. This patch only affects the behaviour of the pNFS server.

FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.
